Confirm the Result

Recheck the completed work against the article, restore the machine through the approved startup procedure, and confirm the expected result in a controlled test before returning to production.

If the issue remains, record the exact on-screen message, affected component, indicator-light state, and the last change made. Provide those details to Enventek Technical Support; do not repeatedly recalibrate or replace parts without identifying the cause.
